John Trapp on Amos 3:10

Verſe 10. For they know not to do right] They have done wrong ſo long together, againſt knowledge and conſcience, that now they are given up to a reprobate ſenſe, to an injudicious minde, [non-Latin text not transcribed]. Rom. 1. having ſinned away that light they had, and loſt that little knowledge they had learned out of the law of Moſes concerning good works: this they have wickedly blotted out of their own minds; as alſo thoſe common notions of good and evill, that glimmering of divine light left in the naturall man; this in a defiled conſcience is wholy extinct. Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge? No, not they, as appeares by what followes, they eat up my people as they eat bread Pſal. 14.4. Theſe Cannibals, like pickrels in a pond, or ſherkes in the ſea, devoure the poorer as they the leſſer fiſhes. And though they cannot but know this to be evill, condemned by the light of nature, and much more of ſcripture, yet they do it, and will do it: their eyes being put out with the duſt of covetouſneſſe, and their hearts ſo exerciſed therewith 2 Pet. 2.14. that they can ſay as that wretched fellow did, We are maſters of our conſciences, we can do what we will, for all them: and as Balaam reſolved at length, to curſe, whatever came of it.

who ſtore up violence and robbery in their palaces] Till the ſcreech-owles of woe cry aloud from the wals, and the beames out of the timber make anſwer Hab. 2.11.12. till their curſed boards of evill-gotten goods witneſſe againſt them, and eat their fleſh as it were fire Jam. 5.3. till very Philiſtines and Egyptians cry ſhame on them, and ſay as the Indians did of the cruel Spaniards, that they carried themſelves neither like Chriſtians nor men, but like devils; that it had been better the Indies had been given to the devils of hell, then to them; and that if the Spaniards went to heaven when they were dead, they would never come there. Let no man think to thrive violentiâ & vaſtitate, by rapine and robery: to treaſure up ſin is to treaſure up wrath Rom. 2.5. which, as a fire, will devoure their palaces, and it ſhall not be quenched, Ier. 17.27.
